  • Plastic Bags have a lot of Enviromental Uses. When they float on the Oceans and Lakes they prevent the UV rays from heating the water which we know helps to prevent the release of CO2 poisonous gas into the Sky which warms the entire planet which will kill all the polar bears and penguins I think or maybe kind of. Plastic bags also help waterproof nests and burrows for birds and rodents which is important because it prevents them from getting wet or feeling damp which prevents mold and mildew

  • @JesusNonEnviromental They aren't helping the planet or other living things in any way, shape, or form. After serving its temporary purpose, it only has the potential to be harmful to all kinds of life - from the sea to the air. So we need to start watching what we do.

  • @BigCougar76 I was being sarcastic. The planet is fine, its the human race that needs help so instead of worrying about a bag, try reaching out to your neighbor

  • @JesusNonEnviromental Whoops! Sorry, I thought I had led into what I said with a "I know you weren't being serious, but in the off chance that you were..." I agree with you 100%, we are in trouble, our presence and carelessness has shortened amount of time we have before the next glacial age. Worrying about something as little as a plastic bag will help in that it isn't necessarily the plastic bag, but that kind of thinking, being more aware of what you do, that will help the planet as a whole.

  • @JesusNonEnviromental PS - I also agree that the Earth is fine, it's just that we're screwing ourselves by shortening the amount of time we have left where we live in a temperate climate, we're just along for the ride, and need to make the most of it as a species.

  • Governments and mainstream politicians are corrupt and care only about personal gain and economic growth no matter what the cost!

    Carry your canvas (hemp)bag to the grocery store and stop using plastic.

    Democrats and republicans are corporate parties and only give lip service to ecology!

    Vote Green!

    Nader/Gonzalez have the right ideas it's your fault if you vote for corporate candidates, they will not stop the wars and environmental degradation!

    Peace.

  • why is plastic still a problem. Yes - why is this? The answer can be find in every wrong action taken against the environment, regardless if its contamination of lake and streams, littering, overfishing, killing of birds, deforestation, mining, killing dolphins, destroying ecosystem or other things - simple, our struggle to make huge profit, in other words to make money, money and money at the expense of the environment.
